    @Zioau 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    the little ticks you hear in your audio may be due to your audio buffer size, too many plugins or anything really, too much to handle…
    it you have a focusrite, you can increase the buffer size in the focusrite settings or whatever (grey icon one, you may have to click it twice to open). increasing your audio buffer does increase delay between your playing and the audio you hear back, though its not significant enough at a lower buffer size

    • @boofinintheboysroom
      @boofinintheboysroom  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah I do have a focusrite, that’s a good recommendation thank you! I currently have it set at 192 and I drop the frame rate on OBS so it records in 25 instead of 29.97. There’s a setting under “macros” in fl that disables all plugins not actively being used and I may have forgot to turn that off. Honestly I think my computer is just not equipped for video and music production haha it’s the first thing on my “to buy” list. Thanks for the tips man!

    Thank you for bringing light to rhythm. People in metal focus too much on shredding but all the biggest bands have rhythm and groove. I literally study pop, funk, and latin for interesting rhythms. Even classical

    Maybe the cpu is overloading when you're recording with all the plug-ins and what not. Try switching the encoder to your dedicated graphics card if you have one. And also really good ways of explaining ways to get creative with rhythm. Well Said.

    I've zero interest in thinking about a rap song (that already exists-with someone else's lyrics) while playing my songs. That being said, it can be something to get you to where you don't need it anymore, I suppose. Hell, I've gotten ideas from listening to people talk up in the front seat, or raindrops falling off the spouting. So I'm not criticizing. Music is happening everywhere, all the time.

    Even though I primarily listen to metal music, I do not really feel like I even understand what you are talking about in this video. The example songs included between clips of you talking mostly just sound like you're strumming a single note/power chord over and over. It does not seem very complex, and I personally find this rather grating to listen to. Hence, I cam only assume this methodology only applies to a narrow style of metal music.

    • @boofinintheboysroom
      @boofinintheboysroom  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s not technically complex, I have other “technically” complex songs but this is more about writing complex rhythms and patterns which is the basis for a lot of the metal I enjoy and try to emulate (see; Frontierer, Ion Dissonance). It’s on the more extreme spectrum of “metal” maybe better described as “math metal” or “djent”. I appreciate the comment though! Check out my newest video on atmosphere, it may be more suited to the type of music you like!
